Yes, the RWs were designed specifically for this upsized tire size.

I've run enough tires sizes to get a feel for offsets. Including a 305/55R20 (33.2") with a +35. It was just okay with that size with some torque steer. +35 worked perfect for 35x12.5s. And now that I'm into 37s and +28, it's pretty good. It's important to try to get right as a rig with bad offsets really does compromise quite a bit in performance.

Makes sense. Again my calculations (done with the KPI) put my offset at +8mm for 33" tires, which is quite doable. I only offset my wheels like this to bring steering geometry back to OE (of course).

I can't stand the poke/stance otherwise.
 
I have those 295's on my 2008 LC. Too big.
Previous owner put them on.
Also removed the splash guards and hacked the inner wheel wells and t h e front bumper.
I'd like to go a size smaller if someone wants to trade.
About 5k miles on them.
